Great job ladies. You showed a lot of heart throughout the World Series. Proud to be a Bama fan, and super proud of all the championship teams this year. Too bad the men's golf team couldn't have finished off the longhorns this weekend. That would have made 5 NC's this year.

I've been to the Flying Saucer in Memphis, and always thought a similar concept would go over well in B'ham. Don't know why they can't serve some kind of food though. The flying Saucer serves easy foods like hamburgers, chic hen fingers, clubs, salads, etc.

Really doubt that had anything to do with it. Here, you get mistakenly arrested and released a couple of hours later. In Mexico, you will get abducted by AR-15 toting drug gang members, and beheaded a short time later.

It's stupid to not at least take the top 8 teams. It would not extend the season by that much, and taking the top 8 would probably take most of the big conference champions, plus occasionally a team like Boise, TCU, etc. It would also eliminate most controversy, although No. 9 would still gripe about not getting in. All other divisions in college footbal have at least a 16 team playoff. I can see us being at 4 teams for 3-6 years, and then expanding to at least 8.

Yep, this kid was sure gonna be a productive citizen. probably would have been a multiple murderer by the age of 16. Not condoning any death, but this was definitely a robbery or gang initiation. And by those comments you listed, it was only a matter of time, before this "kid" took someone's life.

Yeah, don't condemn this type of behavior, just excuse it or try to deflect blame from it by bringing up the girl in Mobile. That'll sure solve this type of problem. Just remember, you might be the next person getting carjacked.

Go back just yesterday and read the article about that girl's funeral. Most of the comments I read were people saying she wouldn't be dead if she didn't put herself in that type of situation. But , of course, you are just going to read and interpret what you what it to be anyway.

Totally ignorant post. Sims didn't play because McCarron was just better. He has the championship MVP trophy to back it up. Sims just didn't get the job done when he got the chance to play the first couple of games. If he would have been the starter last year, we would not have had a NC. Having said that , I wish him luck at UVA.

Can't remember what game it was last year, but I remember this kid stripped a ball on a kickoff return, that we recovered, and made a hit in the secondary that caused a fumble. He does seem to have a knack for causing turnovers. I could see him leading the team in int's next year.

And for anybody out there saying it would be too much travel for the fans, most of the major teams out there have a fan base that travel about 10,000 to 20,000 fans to away games 4 or 5 times a year. Bama and some of the other teams sometimes more than that. How would an extra game or 2 dramatically change that.

I say an eight team playoff would be the best way to do it. Take the 5 conference champs from the Big 10, Big 12, ACC, SEC, and PAC 12. You could then have 3 at-large teams. If you had a team from the now watered down Big East, MWC-CUSA, or and independent like BYU or Notre Dame in the top 8, they would get in. If not, the 3 spots would come from the five conferences mentioned above. Play the 1st round games 2 weeks after the season ends on the campus of the top 4 seeds . This would put the games in the December 10-15th range. Then play the semifinals at 2 of the major bowls around New Years Day. Play those games at the nearest bowl game of the higher seed. For example, if Bama or Auburn was the 2 seed and won, play the next game on the Sugar Bowl. If USC was the 1 seed , they would play thwir next game at the Rose Bowl. This would cut down travel for the higher seeds, who should get some advantage for being the higher seeds. The winners of that game would then meet in the Nat. Champ. Game 2 weeks later on about Jan. 14 or 15. This would space all of the games out about 2 weeks.

Dude, if you really think the coaches, fans, etc. of Alabama would rather play a white QB and lose, than a black QB and win, then you're just nuts. AJ just outperformed him. I'd have to say that if AJ were to go down in the NC game, we'd be in trouble. And as for your warning to Winston, I'd love to have him sign with Bama. I've seen him play and he is a dual threat. Bottom line, if you're back or white, if you can play, you'll play.

In my honest opinion, I was underwhelmed with Sims. I was thinking he was gonna be like Vince Young was in college. I think he was given every opportunity in the A-day game, and the first few games of the season, and just couldn't make anything happen. He waited too long to make throws and was usually sacked. Everybody talked about his running ability, but he looked big and slow to me. In my book, AJ clearly outplayed him, and deserved to be the starter. And I really wanted Sims to be the starter and the real deal. If Winston does flop and sign with us, I definitely think Sims is gone.

If we would have had a receiver come across for the fake handoff like we usually do every other time, we've run that play, Williams wouldn't have had a guy within 20 yards of him. For some reason , Maze received the snap, faded back about five yards, and threw off his back foot. I know his ankle was hurting , but Williams still had his guy beat by 10 yards. Any kind of decent throw would have been a TD. Also, don't forget about Maze tripping over Trents back foot, when we ran the reverse. We had that whole side sealed off, and probably would have scored a TD.
